The purpose of this blog is to share thoughts, comments and issues, as well as hints and suggestions that may help extend your own knowledge of family. As an advocate of DNA testing to support traditional genealogy, my focus is on DNA and newsworthy topics. Do not expect daily publication.
My own genealogy (nonliving persons only) is at www.doriswheeler.org and at http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=PED&db=dorisw&id=I1128..

The Family Finder test at www.ftdna.com is now just $99, permanently, thanks to a great influx of new orders at this price.

How else can you -- male or female -- find cousins you never knew you had, extend the lines in your family tree that are stuck just a few generations back, and participate in the genealogy revolution that brings new discoveries every day?

Order your test today, prepare a GEDCOM or at least a list of the surnames in your tree, along with dates and places, upload it to FTDNA, and sit back and wait for your test results to open new resources that are not available any other way.
